Herbal cure
The last couple of months haven’t been great for me. I’ve felt very… thin skinned. Ever felt like that? Like the tiniest thing can break through and bring tears to the surface? At first, I thought it might be hormonal. It seemed...
The bad news about mandarins
I learned something this weekend. Mandarins – those lovely packets of orangy goodness… … make me fart. Sad but true....
A mental health day
Today I decided I needed a mental health day. It was going to be a reasonably quiet day at work, I had plenty of rec leave up my sleeve and a very understanding boss. A form tomorrow and a sigh of relief. I had a few things to do. I’m making a ...
Warning: This post contains photos of my breasts
Disappointed? Yes I had a mammogram. First one ever. The clinic was very efficient. I was in and out within about 15 minutes. I probably would have been quicker but I asked the nurse if I could have a look at the plates. Normally you get the phot...

Since November 2006 I have carefully avoided my former gym, across the road from work in East Perth. I had been a member there longer than any other gym I’ve been a member of. I used to find it quite convenient to pop out during lunchtime for...
The working lunch
I’ve been pretty good this weekend. Yesterday I spent five hours weeding in the garden. It was long overdue - thigh high thistles - and it took me ages to clear just a small section of my garden. I figured that counted as exercise. Then, this m...
A group half as small as me
One of my new bloggy finds is a blog called Half As Good As You by Casey. She was moaning about how hard it was to lose weight and somehow in comments a bunch of us decided that maybe online motivation would work. Well why not? Nothing else seems to&...
